Join a Lab

We don’t want you to sprint—we want you to last. Research requires sustainable pacing and clear boundaries. If you log your process, revise honestly, and treat risk as real constraints, you’ll fit here.

Role types
RoleWorkWhat we value
Research Assistant (RA) Annotation, corpus maintenance, lab logs, reproducibility runs Stable pacing and strong logging habits
Teaching Assistant (TA) Feedback, seminars, tooling support Communication and care; appointed per term
Visiting collaborator Joint topics, standards drafts, toolchain co-build Clear ethics and data boundaries
Student contributor Upgrade course projects into research outputs Start small with templates, cases, postmortems
What to send (simplified)
  • · One sample: lab log / ruleset / postmortem / writing (one is enough)
  • · A concrete question you want to work on (not just keywords)
  • · Time commitment and time zone notes
  • · Risks and boundaries you see (e.g., data sensitivity, lab hazards)
You don’t need to be “strong” on day one. You need to be honest, sustainable, and collaborative.
